Sometimes the hyphens are removed, but other times not. I can replace manually but I honestly face this issue at least 10 times a day so I would like to automate it.
I've attached a .pdf page to reproduce the issue. Copy, scrub, and paste of a section in the pdf gives me:
"enable us to predict, dis - cover, or explain"
I would like it to paste "discover", of course.
I tried "Text Replace" to find ` - \n`, replace with nothing, with "allow special characters" checked. But I got the result above.
Thank you in advance for your help!

EDIT: no reply needed. I figured it out, needed \r\n rather than \n. ]]>
